Old Coach Road Guest House is tucked away in the Barberton Mountain lands Nature Reserve 9km outside Barberton on the R38, direction Kaapmuiden.
The name is derived from the coach road between Barberton and Delgoa Bay, used by transport riders delivering supplies to the many gold prospectors during the gold rush days of 1874-1898.

The route was also made famous by Percy Fitzpatrick and his dog Jock. The remains of a portion of this road runs through the property.
Kruger National Park (Malelane Gate) is only 65km from Old Coach Road and is easily accessible for a day visit.
We will provide you with a breakfast basket for an early start.
We are fully licensed. Enjoy a late afternoon drink in our bar or view the sunset from our sundeck. We often have unexpected guests!
